It wasn’t the first time Cheng Su had someone trying to leverage a relationship with her. As early as last year, with the changing of the guard, there were already people wanting to go through Qi Taiguo.
But even then, Cheng Su did not accept any benefits to speak on anyone’s behalf. She was very clear on her position and responsibilities and she wasn’t the type to use her husband’s position for personal gain.
Now, knowing that Qi Taiguo might be reassigned soon, she was even more reluctant to accept anything. What if it couldn’t be done and it harmed their relationship?
"Sister-in-law Song, you should report this kind of issue to the organization and explain your situation to them. The organization will make arrangements based on the actual circumstances. As for me, I have no influence. How could I, with just a word, help you switch to another house?" Cheng Su said with a mild smile.
Sister-in-law Song grinned, "How could that be? Your Old Qi is the deputy camp commander..."
"Exactly, but the housing arrangements aren’t handled by him," Cheng Su replied. "Besides, your family isn’t the only one with difficulties. Actually, many people don’t have enough space. In this compound, there are numerous families cramped into just a small room."
What she meant was, if everyone came to request arrangements like you do, whom could they help? If they help one person, they can’t help two or three!
Sister-in-law Song awkwardly said, "Our relationship is different, we’ve been neighbors for quite some days!" Otherwise, what kind of close relationship is this? Can this be compared to others?
"In any case, if you have difficulties, find the leadership. Coming to me won’t work!" Cheng Su spread her hands, firmly refusing her request.
Sister-in-law Song put down her things, "If it doesn’t work, it doesn’t work!" she said, turning her head and leaving, no longer helping Cheng Su with tidying up.
